20% of a=b.
20 ÷ 100 of a = b.
a = 5b. b = a ÷ 5.
1 ÷ 25 of a = (1 ÷ 25) * 100 of a = 4%.
20 ÷ 100 of a = b.
a = 5b. b = a ÷ 5.
1 ÷ 25 of a = (1 ÷ 25) * 100 of a = 4%.

20% of a = b,
20/100 of a = b,
0.2 of a =b,
b% of 20.
0.2/100a * 20,
2/10 * 20a,
4%.
20/100 of a = b,
0.2 of a =b,
b% of 20.
0.2/100a * 20,
2/10 * 20a,
4%.

Simple.
a=b = 20%
What is b% of 20,
20/100*20 = 4%.
a=b = 20%
What is b% of 20,
20/100*20 = 4%.

20% of a=(a/5)=b.
b% of 20 = ((a/5)/100) * 20,
= (a/500) * 20.
= (4/100) * a,
= 4% of a.
b% of 20 = ((a/5)/100) * 20,
= (a/500) * 20.
= (4/100) * a,
= 4% of a.

Suppose a=100.
then b=20%a,
b=20/100*100 (a=100),
b=20,
Means if b=20.
20% of 20=20/100*20.
= 4%.
then b=20%a,
b=20/100*100 (a=100),
b=20,
Means if b=20.
20% of 20=20/100*20.
= 4%.

If a=100 then 20% of a is b = 20.
20% of b =4.
( b% of 20 is the same as 20% of b).
4 out of 100 (4%).
20% of b =4.
( b% of 20 is the same as 20% of b).
4 out of 100 (4%).

Putting the value of b in b of 20% = 20% of a of 20% = 4/100 x a= 4% of a.

Agree @Sid.
Why was b replaced with 1?
